Taqueria Saribella, LLC — Restaurant in Cumming

We stopped by Taqueria Saribella after hearing good things about them from some friends. This is a counter service style eatery, where you stand in line to place your order and then someone brings it to you from the kitchen when it's ready. The dining room is decent sized, and the decor is clean and functional. They have monitors for menu boards and the POS system at the counter is modern and allows for tap to pay. The menus are in both Spanish and English and the majority of the clientele seemed to be Spanish speaking, though we didn't have any problems communicating in English. We ordered a Burrito Duraniuense, Asada Quesadilla, Asada taco, chicken taco, and rice. The quesadilla and burrito also came with a small side salad consisting of shredded lettuce, sliced tomatoes and lime wedges. The food was delivered relatively quickly for as busy as they were, and we were offered an array of salsas in squeeze bottles. The burrito, which was a shredded beef base, was good but it had too much sauce for my liking. I should have inquired about the sauce and asked for it on the side, so that's more my fault than theirs. The beef itself was well seasoned, and the tortilla was fresh and appeared to have been grilled after folding. The asada quesadilla was good, with the filling being just the steak meat and a white Mexican style cheese. We also enjoyed the tacos, served on a nicely toasted corn tortilla with good amounts of meat inside. These came dressed with onions and cilantro, though other toppings could be requested, and lime wedges (which really add a nice brightness to the flavor profile). The rice was a basic Mexican flavored style, with no visible additions such as corn. It was passable as a side to the more intensely flavored entrees. The prices seemed very reasonable for the amount of food received and the quality, check my photo of the menu board to see more details on this. The drink prices were a bit high, and the sodas are only sold in bottles rather than a fountain where one could get refills. There are also some additional Mexican style drinks available such as Aguas Frescas. We didn't see any type of alcoholic beverages offered for sale nor did they have any appetizers such as chips and salsa. All in all, we enjoyed our meal and would definitely go back for...

The food and salsa's are not bad. There is some flavor there. The price does not match the food provided however. I got a Quesadilla, price was $8.59 if I remember correctly. For that price, I expected a decent meal and not something I would get from Taco Bell. There was only about a portion of meat to fill the center of tortilla, and enough cheese that it kept the Quesadilla together but could easily be pulled opened easily. No peppers, no onions, that all there was, meat and cheese. I could get the same thing from Taco Bell for about $4.89 plus a burrito for the same price. The description on the menu also said it came with a small salad on the side. That should be changed to side serving of lettuce because there was no salad. It was just shredded lettuce, no tomato, cream, or anything else. It was bit of a disappointment. On top of all of this, I wanted a Quesadilla with Pastor, but got one with steak. They have potential, but it is going to take some more work. Finally, the cooks need to taste test what they are cooking. They didn't realize they were serving beans to people that tasted burnt until it was brought to their attention. Restaurants succeed by what they serve and how they serve it. So knowing what you serving people is key...

Stopped in here just to check it out because it's on the way home from work. Told the nice lady at the counter that I would have two birria tacos and whatever was on the special menu board. I don't speak much Spanish so I just figured I would try it. The only thing I could tell was it was chicken. She said it was very spicy and I said I like spicy so go for it.

I got home and it was kind of a Mexican chicken stew with potatoes in a fantastic Brown gravy sauce. Yes it was spicy but not a deal-breaker and it was super good.

I saved the tacos for lunch the next day and they were still good. Hadn't dried out at all.

It wasn't busy at all and I was able to watch as they cooked the food and it was very clean. I will definitely be back. I'm looking forward to trying some other menu items. As far as prices go it wasn't bad. The tacos were a little over $3 each. The special plate was around $12 and that included rice and beans and tortillas. Some of the tacos are less than three but the birria tacos are a...
